Summary — OSINT/HUMINT team lead with experience delivering investigations end-to-end and keeping research quality
consistent across a team. I’ve led small multi-disciplinary groups, translated vague questions into workable research plans, and
built repeatable workflows for collection, verification, and reporting. On the OSINT side, I work across public records,
registries/filings, sanctions/PEP sources, media and platform data, and I validate key conclusions through triangulation and
source ranking rather than single “good-looking” hits. On the HUMINT side, I coordinated source work from identification and
vetting through outreach, tasking, and debriefing, with attention to operational constraints and reliability of inputs. I’ve also
used GEOINT in practice for verification-geolocation, satellite imagery, and context checks-to confirm claims and reduce
uncertainty in findings.

Experience
NDA May 2023 – Dec 2025
OSINT / HUMINT Team Lead
– Led an OSINT/HUMINT cell and managed the full recruitment cycle for diverse operational goals – from ad-hoc local
observers to long-term high-value sources in industrial and logistics environments.
– Identified, vetted, and prioritized potential human sources using multi-platform OSINT, personality profiling, and
behavioural analysis to map likely interests, motivators, and potential weak points.
– Designed tailored outreach and engagement strategies (social media, messengers, email) and developed
social-engineering content (including phishing-style messages) aligned with operational security requirements.
– Coordinated end-to-end tasking, debriefing, and reporting with recruited sources, ensuring timely and verifiable
collection of information for analytic and operational teams.
– Collaborated with engineers to define requirements for internal tools and secure communication software, and iterated
on them based on feedback from the field.
– Trained and mentored team members in OSINT/HUMINT workflows, OPSEC, and disciplined handling of sensitive
information in high-risk environments.

NDA Aug 2022 – May 2023
Researcher (2023) -¿ Senior Researcher (OSINT) (2023)
– Led research teams in designing data collection methodologies and conducting structured stakeholder interviews for
investigative and analytical projects.
– Produced in-depth OSINT reports combining quantitative data, qualitative insights, and visual evidence, tailored for
decision-makers and public release.
– Collected, verified, and structured multi-source open data (registries, corporate disclosures, sanctions lists, government
and trade datasets) into investigation-ready analytic tables and relationship graphs.
– Applied Python automation to build API integrations, scheduled web-scraping, and data enrichment pipelines for
continuous dataset updates.
– Conducted sanctions and compliance screening, uncovering beneficial-ownership links, restricted party overlaps, and
export-control risks.
– Presented complex findings through clear visualizations, diagrams, and briefings to both technical and non-technical
audiences.

Skills
✓ Team Leadership: Managing and mentoring OSINT analysts, task delegation, quality control, and training in investigative
methods.
✓ HUMINT Operations: Full-cycle human source recruitment and handling for diverse objectives – from identifying and
profiling potential sources (including employees in industrial environments) to outreach, tasking, and debriefing; designing
tailored social-engineering and phishing-style messages/tools; analysing personalities, likely interests, motivators, and
potential weak points to increase engagement effectiveness and reduce operational risk.
✓ OSINT Expertise: Advanced search techniques in open, deep, and dark web sources; use of open registries, corporate
filings, sanctions/PEP lists, leak databases, social/messaging platforms, and geolocation tools.
✓ Analytical Research: Conducting complex background checks, digital footprint analysis, and due diligence; identifying
data patterns and presenting findings through clear reports, diagrams, and presentations.
✓ Data Processing: Structuring and analyzing large datasets from multiple sources; using automation (APIs, parsing,
enrichment) to speed up research.
✓ Compliance & Security Awareness: Understanding of KYC, sanctions regulations, industry security standards, and
anonymization principles.
